Welcome back! I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season. Thank you again to all the families for coming out to the Winter Concert! It was such a special and memorable event, and the students’ hard work was evident during their amazing performances on stage!

During the month of December, we had so much fun participating in many different arts and crafts including our snow globes, marble art snowflakes, as well as our “hot chocolate shop” project. Each day, we build number sense by counting together and using math words such as more, less, and equal. Using snowflake connectors, we created colourful patterns exploring how patterns can change and repeat. We also enjoyed reading a few different versions of familiar fairy tales, noticing their similarities and differences, and had a wonderful time acting out one of the stories as a class.

This past month, students have learned how to identify, print, and sound out the letters Dd, Cc, and Kk. We have also been having fun rotating through our winter‑themed discovery centres, where students can practice literacy, numeracy, fine motor, and innovation skills in a creative and interactive environment. 

January will be a snowy month, so stay warm by curling up inside with a blanket and try to read a story every night. I am looking forward to another exciting learning month! Happy New Year!
